    Summary

    "I find you attractive, you find me attractive. I don’t like you, you don’t like me, so we don’t need to pretend this is anything other than scratching an itch one time. You scratch my back, I scratch yours, kinda thing. And, you know, not to get into it, but…I’m very good. You won’t be disappointed.”

    For a long moment, Sebastian is silent. Those twin eyebrow creases had grown deeper and deeper the longer Jacob spoke, once he realized how dead serious Jacob was. Finally, he says through gritted teeth, “I don’t find you attractive.”

    Jacob rolls his eyes. “Sebastian, don’t say no based on a lie. If you want to say no, then say no, but don’t lie about it.”

    Sebastian has an old problem, and Jacob gets a new neighbor.

    Summary

    // NOW COMPLETE!

    Ryland Grace is supposed to help save humanity.
    Carl’s job is to make sure nothing compromises that mission.
    But somewhere between hardware store shenanigans and long hours in the lab, duty gives way to trust, trust gives way to want, and both men are left facing the truth of what’s been building between them.

    // Note about the rating:
    This fic contains explicit sex scenes, but they’re not the main focus. If you’re not into reading smut, you still can absolutely enjoy this story and simply skip those parts. Sexual content appears only toward the end of chapters 3, 4, and 5. You can safely read up to that point in each chapter and then jump to the beginning of the next chapter.

    This also works the other way around — if you’re here for just the smut and don't care much about the emotional buildup or aftermath, you can go straight to chapters 3, 4, and 5 (and scroll to the bottom).

    I think the fic works best as a whole, but I understand everyone has different preferences :)

    Summary

    “Think you can open your eyes for me, sweetheart?” And okay, March maybe whined a little at that. Opening his eyes sounded like too much work; he was happy where he was, thanks, plus he didn't really want to think.
    Healy huffed out a laugh like he could tell exactly what went through March’s head. “Open your eyes,” Healy said, his voice firmer but still gentle. A command.
    Well, when he put it that way…
    March likes when Healy takes control. Healy likes when Healy takes control. It’s a win/win situation.

    Summary

    Jackson wants to pick her up and hold her in the palm of his hands, tuck her into his pocket. He wants to wrap her up in that afghan and staple it to the couch so she can never leave. He wants to find the asshole who let her into that bar and knock their teeth clean out of their mouth and present her the molars as jewelry so she knows justice has been done. He wants to find the dead man walking that touched her drink-

    He sits next to the couch, his back to Holly. Faces the door.

     

    or: Holly gets into trouble. She doesn't go home.

    Summary

    Carl sees Grace a long while later, casually. He hadn’t made a big deal of coming home—Carl didn’t even know.

    He can’t really contain himself, seeing the love of his life standing just across the street, ordering coffee.
